Band Brothers DX oozes with Wi-Fi support
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News, Wii | 0 comments
While Band Brothers DX seems like it will be a Japanese exclusive for now, it may be worth importing if you’re a strong supporter of Wi-Fi. When the game launches in June, a Speaker Channel will be up for download which will allow music from the DS game to be amplified from your television (I believe Band Brothers is one of the first games to do this.) Moreover, musical pieces that you create will be able to be uploaded to a server for other players to download. So, if you’re interested in music and feature support, this could be the game for you!

Space Chimps trailer, press release
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News, Wii | 0 comments
Note: Trailer is from Xbox 360 version
Brash Entertainment today announced the release of Space Chimps, a brand new action adventure videogame title. Based on the hotly anticipated CGI-animated Space Chimps film from the creator of Shrek, John H. Williams (Shrek and Shrek 2), Space Chimps the videogame combines the same colourful world and characters of the forthcoming film with a unique storyline that puts fans in the heart of the action with 11 levels of monkey fun and mayhem. Space Chimps the videogame will release alongside the film and will be marketed and distributed across Europe by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment in August 2008.
Space Chimps is a hilarious new action adventure-comedy film that follows the exploits of mischievous young circus chimp, Ham (voiced by Andy Samburg) who happens to be the grandson of the first primate ever sent into space! As a publicity stunt, Ham is chosen to lead an exploratory mission into outer space to investigate a mysterious new planet. But when he and his crew crash-land in a bizarre and beautiful new world and find their lives in peril at the hands of the tyrannical King Zartog, Ham must step up to his dangerous mission to save his fellow space chimps, Titan (voiced by Patrick Warburton) and Luna (voiced by Cheryl Hines), and lead the emancipation of the imprisoned aliens and the planet.
